Frequently Asked Questions

Find answers to common questions about this service

Singapore company incorporation can be completed within 1-2 business days with proper documentation. However, the full setup process including bank account opening, work pass applications, and operational readiness typically takes 4-8 weeks.

There is no minimum paid-up capital requirement — you can start with as little as S$1. However, we typically recommend a higher initial capital depending on your business type, as it can affect bank account opening, licensing, and work pass applications.

Our partnership with Jonni brings specialized expertise in Employment Pass applications, including strategic salary structuring, COMPASS score optimization, and a deep understanding of MOM's evaluation criteria. This collaboration significantly improves approval rates for complex cases.

No, you do not need to be physically present to incorporate a company in Singapore. However, you will need at least one local resident director. We can provide nominee director services to fulfill this requirement while you manage operations remotely.

Key obligations include annual filing with ACRA, annual general meetings, tax filing with IRAS, maintaining a registered office and company secretary, and compliance with the Companies Act. Our comprehensive corporate services cover all these requirements.
